              Men (and one dog) stand side-by-side outside the Minnie Mine and Mill mill building on Mineral Hill in French Gulch, east of Breckenridge, Colorado. The wood frame, metal-roofed mill was constructed in 1892 and included several crushers, crushing rolls, screens and jigs. Smoke rises from one of the chimneys. Peeled, cut logs are stacked near the mill's entrance. The Minnie Mine and Mill was owned by the Blue Hill Mining Company from 1890-1904.

              Gold Pan Mining Company operations at the southern outskirts of Breckenridge, Colorado. Circa early 1900s. A sluiceway with a rubber conveyor belt moved rocks from the gold excavating pit and into an ore trolley. The trolley moved up the elevated wooden scaffold and dumped the rocks over the edge, eventually creating a massive tailings pile. The Colorado and Southern Railway (C&S) tracks ran under the conveyor system and crossed a trestle to the west side of the Blue River. In the foreground is a wood frame house with a square bay window, facing east. A rail fence borders the property. Tenmile Range in the background.

              Evans elevator system at the Gold Pan Mining Company operations south of Breckenridge, Colorado. Circa early 1900s. Water diverted from the Blue River was forced under tremendous pressure down one pipe into the pit. A second pipe hydraulically lifted rocks, dirt, water and potential gold to the elevated trestle and sluice. Tailings were moved by conveyor belt into an ore trolley; the trolley hauled the rocks up the elevated wooden trestle and dumped them over the edge, away from the pit. In the background are the Gold Pan Shops, including the pipe making shop and dipping tank; machine, blacksmith and carpenter shop; and pipe flanging and shearing shop. Also, the Gold Pan office building with dormer windows. Barney Ford Hill is in view, with Illinois Gulch to the southeast.
